FAQ
Frequently asked questions

No. Everything in NEO is earned through gameplay — no microtransactions, no advantage you can buy.
Is the game in early access?
Yes, NEO is currently in alpha (v1.30.0). Updates ship regularly and the game evolves with community feedback.
Can I play on the same account on the website and in-game?
Yes — one account for both. You can sign up on the site or in-game, and manage your email and password from your account page here.
